Our breed of dogs
Working Labrador Retriever
Working Labrador Retrievers are outgoing, intelligent, trusting, loving, gentle and agile dogs and are also strong dogs, if not trained properly they can drag their new owners down the street! As Labradors are working dogs they have an urge to retrieve. Because of this chewing can become a problem as they can have an oral fixation. Mental stimulation as well as giving them string chew toys and bones at a young age can prevent the urge to chew things they aren't supposed to chew!
Working English Springer Spaniel
Working English Springer Spaniels are affectionate, intelligent, active, attentive and alert dogs. Springers like to be with people and like having a job. They are easy to train but can have digging problems if left alone to become bored as they do not do well not being active. Giving a springer a specific place to dig such as sand pit or a specific plant pot to dig in will prevent destructive digging. Introducing the sand pit at a young age is a great place to start!
Working Cocker Spaniel
Working Cocker Spaniel's are affectionate, loving, playful, easy to train, friendly and faithful dogs. They are lively but easy going. Cockers love to fetch, so throwing a stick or ball they will be happy. The problem with this is they have high prey drive, they can tend to chase smaller animal's. This can be trained out of them as they are dogs who like a job. You can teach them too when appropriate to chase, like after a ball and not the pigeon at the park! You can start at an early age.
In addition
The Cockapoo
In addition to our other breeds, Isle of Canty Kennels occasionally offers delightful Cockapoo litters. These charming crossbreeds combine the best traits of Cocker Spaniels and Poodles, resulting in intelligent, friendly and active. Our Cockapoos are raised in our purpose built kennels as all our pups ensuring they are well-socialised and ready for their forever homes.
